Nope, I'm getting a tooth pulled and am"sinus lift" done tomorrow evening. Don't think I'll be up to it.

You'll be fine, the "meds" they give you will make it all better and make you feel like you are the best driver in the world. Just let us know when you are planning on being on the road so we call all adjust our departure times.

Good Luck Sean and hope all goes well. Mines been done for abour a year now and my sinus now thanks me!

I believe the plan is everyone meeting a Lowes out west and caravaning from there. Too many deer on the Maricopa route (sorry, had to say it Dwayne).

If your GPS takes you thru Maricopa then you'll miss the chance of cruising with 100 other corvettes.....

I've been cooking a little bit of food today or I would have been here to answer your questions sooner!!, :lol

I'm going to upgrade my chances to 20/80 to make it. Tooth is pulled, bone grafting done, and sinus lift accomplished. Not feeling too much pain at the moment, but it's only been about an hour since I left the dentist.

To bad your not here Glen...We need someone to lead the pack.......

I was thinking, he could suck in some exhaust fumes...from an old school motor.

That's right moFo, only the car has changed, not me :3gears:

Also, Dewayne, you sure this is #11? Seems I remember this back in 01, small group, a few burgers...unless you are only counting the bigger ones now?? :dupe

I first joined CF in the summer of 01, but I don't think we knew everyone well enough 6 months later to have planned one so that would put the 1st one in 03...

And in fact this link would be #2 because it was Tanya's first event...

Be sure to read post number 84 ... :lol

khci_2 is in +1 passenger

Please add me to the list

I added you two and C4cruiser to the list.

Those of you dropping out will just have to pretend your name isn't there because I'm not going thru it anymore...

We should start serving by noon, I have 250 waters so everyone share or bring your own...

A chair and sunscreen would be beneficial too.

Everyone have a safe and FUN trip tomorrow!
